    Don't just use your x-ray vision, talk to them. The squeaky wheel get the grease.
    These men and their hypnotized followers call this a new order. It is not new. It is not order.

    Happy Birthday! I think square butte pretty well summed it up for a lot of us.

    Sincerely hope you had a good day and celebrated in fine style!

    If you love the Win 94 you will start grooming a youngster to leave it to. Its just going to rust in your box.

    Perhaps a little tardy but a Happy Birthday to the OP. I've been married to the same woman for 54 years and we're hangin' on with as much grace as we can muster. On the other hand, my old college girlfriend (who 'dear-johnned' me while is was in 'Nam) has outlived two husbands and will be moving in with her current 'boyfriend' (she's 75 and he's 82) when her condo lease runs out on the first of October. Go figure...

    It’s hard for me to find anything positive about living past a certain age. But I’m wishing you the best.

    You did well to grow old. The only thing worse than growing old is - NOT growing old. Enjoy your day.
